Cold (&/) Warm

That is new(or not so new) me. 

Assalamualaikum, hellow peeps!

Yeah, I am sometimes cold person, sometimes warm, depending on who am I dealing with. No, not to say that I easily mood swung but.. Hmm, let's just say that I'm a complex being. Hey, afterall, we all are! We're unique on our own way. 

I'm now trying to accept people for who they are instead of judging who they are not. We(most people are) tend to judge people on how we want them to be, neglecting the fact that the imperfections of human is what makes a community being formed.

My oh my, I'm now writing unparallel* with the title. It's not cohesively written! But you get the point that I'm complex, don't you? Lol. 

Please forgive me. Will be more informative or educative next time (brain frozen since last time I blogging, so need to practice)

Till then.

*there's no such word. Lol

Changed

Assalamualaikum dear readers,

Again, it's been awhile since my last entry. Again, I've been busy. But I just feel I need to scribble things. Not really on my mind but what've just crossed. As mentioned above, I've changed. Don't know whether change for the better or viseversa. 

I've changed for the past 3 years, in terms of:
 - The way I perceive things and situations
 - The way I think and react
 - My working life
 - My life goal

Forgive me for being selfish or too intent towards myself not to share with you the details, as usual, this is me. My blog is not my diary, but as a reminder when I read it back, someday. I jot down the point so that I'll be reminded. This is also to train my memory. Maybe you should do too :)


*PS: Hoping that I get the mood of writing this often. I miss to write and practice to throw up my vocab.

Till then.

Enthusiasm to strive

Assalamualaikum dear readers.

Please forgive me for being idle quite a while. These are the months of the busiest months of my life, nothing but work, in a sense. Not to say I enjoy being in this state that I scribble this down, but somehow I have to jot down what's on my mind so that maybe someday I can refer to this tidbit whenever I feel demoralized.

Yesterday was a very challenging day for me as my team and I were competing(healthily) with 2 other teams to come out of a design each, to qualify to be in a proposal tender. To make long story short, I have to do the floor plan layout incorporated with the design. I try to do it as detail as possible and later on found out that I mistakenly do the wrong layout which has not been updated. I haven't sleep merely two days. My head is almost in a facet of daze. Time is running out. I was cursing and panicking inside but acting cool. With a stress face. I was about to breakdown and cry but I said to myself there's no use of me to do so or curse whatsoever and I started calling for Him. I don't know somehow,  what force or magic it is when you chant or ask for His help (if you have good relationship with Him), He'll grant your wishes or at the very least, give you the strength to move on, to push you when things seem not to be feasible and everything is not right.

Some might not have an idea what am I scribbling about, some may say this is common but when you're in my shoes, the feel is very different.  All you wanna do is leave the desk (or even worst, the body) and get lost. But what makes me stay strong is because I believe Allah is there to sort this mess out and this is my responsibility to get it done. I take this accountability very seriously and this is what I should practice in everyday basis.

The story doesn't end there. Later that night, I forgot to do the mood board. I was assigned to do it a day before but I totally forget it until I have a few more hours before midnight. I was still in the office. Sigh. And again I said to myself, you can do this, this is easier than that morning. And again with the help of Allah,  I finally managed to design a mood board. I haven't come across a mood board. That was my first time. Lol. Silly me. It turns out that actually it is very easy when you're in the mood.  Lesson learned. Always, always, always psych yourself up when you seem to be facing a problem.

I hope I can remember this whenever I encounter this kind of circumstances in future.

Till then. Xoxo.

Assalamualaikum.

Mother knows best

Watched it? Yeah, pretty much were true about a mother . Not the part that she's evil but the fact that your mother knows you even better than you, what more any other person. I don't know about you but it works on me. Haha. 

Sometimes even if they are not so intelligent or really successful but they are wise, I can tell. And sometimes, even they don't know about everything, and you doubt about her opinion, just listen to her and do what she told you so because in the end, it's not the result that matters but the blessing from Allah. Allah loves the mother that is why a mother's prayers are much much more likely to be granted than a father*. Just because of the mother's love. So seek for her blessing and you shall granted Allah's blessing. 

I love you mom. 

Xoxo

Compatible or Upgrade?

Assalamualaikum dear readers,

Last week as I was having lunch with my bunch of colleagues, a friend ask me, do I have a relationship (so-called) and I said I couldn't find someone compatible to get along with me. And he said what kind of compatible are you searching for? Compatible is for computer and software. He then ask me what do I do if a software is not compatible with the computer. I said, uninstall it. He corrected me by telling, "no, when a software is not compatible anymore, you upgrade. So in this case you have to upgrade yourself instead of being compatible because upgrading yourself will makes you compatible with any software". Point. True or true? 

So when you're not compatible anymore, don't uninstall the 'software', but upgrade yourself. Can you comprehend what I mean? Get it? Never mind if you don't get it because this entry is purposely to remind myself. 

^^,

Kalau Dahi Tak Mencecah Sejadah Di Dunia!

Bersihkanlah dirimu sebelum kamu dimandikan
Berwudhu’lah kamu sebelum kamu diwudhu’kan
Dan solatlah kamu sebelum kamu disolatkan

Tutuplah ‘auratmu sebelum ‘auratmu ditutupkan
Dengan kain kafan yang serba putih
Pada waktu itu tidak guna lagi bersedih
Walaupun orang yang hadir itu merintih

Selepas itu kamu akan diletak di atas lantai
Lalu dilaksanakanlah solat Jenazah
Dengan empat kali takbir dan satu salam
Berserta Fatihah, Selawat dan doa
Sebagai memenuhi tuntutan Fardhu Kifayah

Tapi apakah empat kali takbir itu dapat menebus
Segala dosa meninggalkan solat sepanjang hidup?

Apakah solat Jenazah yang tanpa rukuk dan sujud
Dapat membayar hutang rukuk dan sujudmu yang telah luput?

Sungguh tertipulah dirimu jika beranggapan demikian...

Justeru ku menyeru sekelian Muslimin dan Muslimat
Usunglah dirimu ke tikar solat
Sebelum kamu diusung ke liang lahad
Menjadi makanan cacing dan makanan ulat
Iringi dirimu ke masjid
Sebelum kamu diiringi ke Pusara

Tangisilah dosa-dosamu di dunia
Kerana tangisan tidak berguna di alam baqa’

Sucikanlah dirimu sebelum kamu disucikan
Sedarlah kamu sebelum kamu disedarkan
Dengan panggilan ‘Izrail yang menakutkan

Berimanlah kamu sebelum kamu ditalkinkan
Kerana ianya berguna untuk yang tinggal
Bukan yang pergi

Beristighfarlah kamu sebelum kamu diistighfarkan
Namun ketika itu istighfar tidak menyelamatkan

Ingatlah di mana saja kamu berada
Kamu tetap memijak bumi Tuhan
Dan dibumbungi dengan langit Tuhan
Serta menikmati rezeki Tuhan

Justeru bila Dia menyeru, sambutlah seruan-Nya
Sebelum Dia memanggilmu buat kali yang terakhirnya

Ingatlah kamu dahulu hanya setitis air yang tidak bererti
Lalu menjadi segumpal darah
Lalu menjadi seketul daging
Lalu daging itu membaluti tulang
Lalu jadilah kamu insan yang mempunyai erti

Ingatlah asal usulmu yang tidak bernilai itu
Yang kalau jatuh ke tanah
Ayam tak patuk itik pun tak sudu!
Tapi Allah mengangkatmu ke suatu mercu
Yang lebih agung dari malaikat!

Lahirmu bukan untuk dunia
Tapi gunakanlah ia buat melayar bahtera akhirat

Sambutlah seruan ‘Hayya ‘alas Solaah’!
Dengan penuh rela dan bersedia

Sambutlah seruan ‘Hayya ‘alal Falaah’!
Jalan kemenangan Akhirat dan Dunia!

Ingatlah yang kekal ialah amal
Menjadi bekal sepanjang jalan
Menjadi teman di perjalanan
Guna kembali ke pangkuan Tuhan

Pada hari itu tiada berguna harta, tahta dan putera
Isteri, kad kredit dan kereta
Kondominium, saham dan niaga

KALAU DAHI TAK MENCECAH SEJADAH DI DUNIA!
